The requirement
The Mental Health Recovery Pathway service will provide a comprehensive proactive mental health early intervention and prevention offer for adults in Islington. Through a range of community interventions, the service will deliver recovery-focused practical and emotional wellbeing support to build resilience and achieve positive outcomes with residents.
Islington Council is committed to early intervention and prevention and in 2023 published Fairer Together – a strategy for early intervention and prevention in Islington
In Islington, we see early intervention and prevention as: proactive not reactive, focused on building capacity and relationships, joined up, rooted in communities and reducing the need for crisis or statutory services.
Islington Adult Social Care’s vision is for the borough to be a place made up of strong, inclusive and connected communities, where regardless of background, people have fair and equal access to adult social care support that enables residents to live healthy, fulfilling and independent lives. This service will align with Adult Social Care’s operating model by proactively taking all opportunities to build on people’s strengths, maximise their independence and connecting them with their community, ensuring equality and fairness throughout.
